Fat Quarter Shop Giveaway: Meadow Friends Jelly Roll Fabric Giveaway


Have you heard of Fat Quarter Shop?  Of course you have! They are only one of the most awesome fabric shops online with the most amazing collection of precut fabrics around.  Did you know that they are a sponsor of The Cottage Home blog?  Well, they most certainly are and I just wanted to take a moment to share a few things from their shop before we move on to their generous giveaway.



Fat Quarter shop sells an amazing array of designer quilting cotton yardage, but they also specialize in "precut" fabrics.  If you aren't familiar with "precuts", here is what they are - they are fabrics that have been cut to a certain size and are generally bundled together in coordinating sets.  For example, charm square packs are 5" x 5" cuts of fabric sold in coordinating packs of 42 (or other number depending on the seller).  These "precut" fabrics make it super-easy to do fun patchwork projects like quilts, table runners, wall hangings, clothing, ect.  There are also several other different types of "precut" fabrics that come in other sizes - jelly rolls, layer cakes, fat quarter bundles, and fat eighth bundles.



The neat thing about Fat Quarter Shop is that they bundle a lot of their own fabrics into "precuts" that are exclusive to their shop.  Some manufacturers will sell fabrics already "precut", but at Fat Quarter Shop you can get these plus a variety of cuts not available elsewhere.




I am so excited about today's giveaway and I know you guys will be too!  Our lovely blog sponsor, Fat Quarter Shop, is giving away a girl or boy (your choice) jelly roll of Deb Strain's "Meadow Friends" to one lucky The Cottage Home Blog Reader.

I have seen so many fun projects online using jelly rolls lately.  Here are a few projects on my "to do" list (tutorial links underneath)...........






Remember the quilt I showed you a few weeks back that I made for my daughter, Savannah's room (blog post here)?  


Well, back in the day (3 years ago) I purchased a jelly roll and fat quarter bundle from Fat Quarter Shop to complete this quilt.  I still have a few scraps left over - fat quarter bundles go along way!

So here's how to enter the "Meadow Friends" jelly roll giveaway.  Two entries allowed per person.  Please leave a separate comment for each entry.  Open to US residents only.

1) Go check out Fat Quarter Shop and tell us what you like (click HERE to do so).
2) Become a fan of Fat Quarter Shop on Facebook (click HERE to do so).

Giveaway will be open until July 29, 2011 at midnight (CST).

If you love designer cotton fabrics, you need to go check out Fat Quarter Shop.  They have an amazing selection to choose from and you can be 100% assured that this is quality, top-of-the-line fabric!

*If you are interested in becoming a sponsor of The Cottage Home blog, please email Lindsay at thecottagemama[at]gmail[dot]com for rates and more information.
